@70 FJ40 still available as of tonight

@kwon-offroad the rust is really not bad and considered in the price. The battery is in the standard OEM battery tray so it comes right out! The AC line is rubber so it easily moves out of the way if that’s what you were wondering. Thanks for checking it out.

Yeah I couldn’t find a way to change that listing to show it was no longer on BAT since the reserve was not met. Thanks for clarifying. @overton

Offering my 40 for sale. This was listed on the BAT auction site but did not meet the reserve. The highest bidder was very close but would not respond to negation attempts. Please see the craigslist post and youtube videos. This is a great truck, runs strong, looks amazing. $29,000

The auction did not meet my reserve price. Please message me here with any questions. I will respond quickly! This is a great truck and available for test drive or mechanic examination. Thanks for checking it out

Thanks to everyone who has checked out the auction listing. There is considerable interest and I’m preparing myself to part with her. This is not going to be easy! If you are interested the auction ends tomorrow after noon at 3:55. And thanks @George Amonette for that recent update on Alabama...

That’s a great question! I wish I could find out how different states would treat this situation. Two clean titles after a salvage. Three states! I have a Georgia registration that is current and hopefully would be all that is needed. Thanks @ionyota! I’ll keep digging but if you find out any...

I have have insurance through Geico so that’s not an issue. The salvage title is old and no longer is connected to the car. In Ga we don’t have to transfer a title that old so it has basically expired. It has been issued clean title in Florida and Alabama but this were not transferred through...

Walk around video has been posted to the BAT listing. The auction is live until Monday Jan 11th. Check it out! Thanks

Thanks for checking it out @mudpaws and @Haggis. I understand that completely. My FJ40 was issued a “salvage” title in 1992. Fortunately the truck is in great shape and there are no issues with whatever accident caused the insurer to elect not to repair it 30 years ago. It’s not a fully restored...

I’m offering my FJ40 through auction on www.bringatrailer.com. Please view photos and videos there if interested. It’s best to contact me through that listing if you have any questions or have interest. Thanks! https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1982-toyota-land-cruiser-fj40-30/

Hey guys just wanted to give you an update on my repair. I took my 40 to Peter Merriam as recommended by several of you (thanks for coming by @Wadesters). Compared to my experience at the other popular shop in Atlanta, Peter was outstanding. He basically removed some vac lines, re-routed a...

Thanks @LDowney! Basically it’s backfiring/sputtering when RPM’s are high and I’m down shifting or slowing for a stop. It also has some flat spots during acceleration. I’ll give Peter a call tomorrow and see if we can sort it out. I appreciate the responses.

Thanks @Cornhusker. Has new AC, power steering, tons of new OeM replacements and everything works. I’m asking $35k. Tried adjusting the carb and timing yesterday again and runs strong until it gets really warm then starts the flutter. I guess I’ll call ACC for an apt Monday. I’d love to sell to...

Thanks! I’ve been looking at “bring your trailor” and other sales the last 6 months. I’m going to list it at $35. I’m working on lots of photos and a thourough video this week.
